.
5. The contractor bill is paid, and 6% retain is withheld.


6. The park renovations were completed and the final bill of $5,100,000 was received. The
contractor bill and retained are approved for payment in full. Total construction expenditures
were allocated as follows: $960,000,000 to building, and the remainder to equipment.

Your software company was invited to provide a proposal for a company in Australia. You currently have the cost in US dollars and need to convert the prices to the Australian dollar.

Write a 2-part program using Ruby, Java®, or Python.

Part 1: Write a function to gather the following costs from the user:

  • Travel Cost: $9,800
  • Hotel Cost: $3,500
  • Rental Car Cost: $1,600
  • Labor Cost: $15,500

Part 2: Write a function to convert the costs from United States dollar (USD) to Australian dollar (AUD). Note: Look up the current USD to AUD exchange rate to use in your function.

Test the program 3 times by providing different costs in USD.

  1. Problem 10-07 (Algorithmic)

    Aggie Power Generation supplies electrical power to residential customers for many U.S. cities. Its main power generation plants are located in Los Angeles, Tulsa, and Seattle. The following table shows Aggie Power Generation's major residential markets, the annual demand in each market (in megawatts or MWs), and the cost to supply electricity to each market from each power generation plant (prices are in $/MW).

    Distribution Costs
    City Los Angeles Tulsa Seattle Demand (MWs)
    Seattle $364.25 $601.75 $67.38 958.00
    Portland $367.25 $604.75 $189.13 842.25
    San Francisco $166.13 $463.00 $284.88 2363.00
    Boise $341.25 $460.00 $281.88 578.75
    Reno $241.50 $479.00 $360.25 954.00
    Bozeman $428.63 $428.63 $309.88 506.15
    Laramie $367.25 $426.63 $367.25 1198.50
    Park City $375.25 $375.25 $494.00 622.25
    Flagstaff $238.13 $535.00 $653.75 1178.19
    Durango $363.25 $303.88 $600.75 1472.25
    1. If there are no restrictions on the amount of power that can be supplied by any of the power plants, what is the optimal solution to this problem? Which cities should be supplied by which power plants? What is the total annual power distribution cost for this solution? If required, round your answers to two decimal places.

      The optimal solution is to produce  MWs in Los Angeles,  MWs in Tulsa, and  MWs in Seattle. The total distribution cost of this solution is $  .
    2. If at most 4000 MWs of power can be supplied by any one of the power plants, what is the optimal solution? What is the annual increase in power distribution cost that results from adding these constraints to the original formulation? If required, round your answers to two decimal places.

      The optimal solution is to produce  MWs in Los Angeles,  MWs in Tulsa, and  MWs in Seattle. The total distribution cost of this solution is $  . The increase in cost associated with the additional constraints is $  .

  1. Identify the differences between all four market structures in the short-run and long-run. This will be helpful as many of you may hold management positions and/or become entrepreneurs in the near future. When deciding what type of firm to own or operate, you may find that one market structure may be more advantageous over another based on short-run and long-run costs.  
  2. Explain the significance that the average total cost (ATC) curve has on profit and loss based on each type of market structure. Explore how the ATC curve affects all four market structures and identify whether firms will earn a profit or loss based on the placement of the ATC curve and price.

Michael Wilson entered into a new business, hotel ownership, by buying a small 24 room hotel and café. The hotel is located in a remote area of Minnesota that is popular for tourists. Michael has hired you for advice.

Michael hired a young couple to run the hotel and café on a daily basis and plans to pay them a monthly salary. They will live for free in a small apartment adjacent to the office. The couple will be responsible for hiring and supervising five part-time personnel who will help with cleaning the rooms, cooking, waiting on customers in the café. The couple will maintain records of rooms rented, meals served, and payments received. They will also make weekly deposits.

Mike is concerned about his lack of control over the records and operations. Mike lives 5 hours away and will only be able to make periodic visits. Mike trusts the couple but wonders if it makes sense to place so much trust in employees.

Mike needs your help to identify possible ways that his motel and café could be defrauded and especially wants assistance to devise creative internal controls to help prevent or detect fraud.

Required

  1. What are your two biggest concerns related to possible fraud for the hotel part of the business.   For each concern describe two controls that could reduce the risk.
  2. What are your two biggest concerns related to the café part of the business. For each concern describe to controls to reduce risk.
